The Trust
Kenilworth Multi Academy Trust has two vacancies for a Teacher of Science for a full time role and a part time 0.8fte role, where all science disciplines will be considered. The role will be based at Kenilworth School and Sixth Form.
The Science Department:
The successful candidate would be joining a thriving department where all Science staff work for and support each other; a unified team of experienced specialists who are passionate about developing our students’ love for science.
We are a team of 19 highly driven, dedicated, supportive and passionate Science teachers supported by 5 skilled Science technicians. We are proud to provide students with the curiosity and skills that prepare them for their future, broadening their understanding of the scientific world and developing each as a well-rounded individual.
Our department comprises of 16 new Science laboratories, 3 prep rooms and a science staff base.
Student opportunities in science:
We have a STEM coordinator who organises regular events, shows, competitions and opportunities for all students during the school year, in addition to a monthly STEM newsletter. We have an animal club with 4 corn snakes, and we participate in various national and regional competitions including the Biology, Chemistry and Physics Olympiad, The Faraday Challenge and The National Scientific Thinking Challenge.
Other examples of trips include The Big Bang Fair, New Scientist Live, Christmas lectures, Warwick University Science in Action Lectures, and Operation Ouch! Live and a Year 12 residential visit to Portugal.
Our Science curriculum intent is driven by the whole school intent and is both ambitious and innovative, inspiring all students to excellence.
From the beginning of year 7, our students follow a progression model based upon the whole learning journey. Science lessons are exciting, thought-provoking, differentiated and inclusive, where we aim to create a sense of awe and wonder. We provide every student with opportunities for creativity, collaboration, independence, challenge, and problem solving; a platform that encourages them to think logically and develop their verbal and written communication skills.
As a Teacher of Science, you should be able to teach science across all ability ranges across KS 3-4; the ability to teach KS5 would be advantageous, but not essential.
We can offer you:
* A supportive team of colleagues within the Department and across the school
* A positive, community school environment with an innovative learning culture
* A dedicated and forward looking management team, with highly skilled staff upholding high expectations and aspirations for our students
* Shared access to online resources to support the development of student learning
* A wide enrichment programme in which you can participate
* Employee well-being benefits via our Employee Assist healthcare programme (Benenden) to include health diagnostics, physiotherapy, 24/7 GP and mental health support, retail and gym discount, free flu vaccination, a laptop and on-site parking with electric car charging ports, plus use of an on-site gym.
We welcome applications from ECTs or experienced teachers.
